These are delicious little morsels with an excellent flavour. They remind me of the President's Choice little fudge brownie bites I used to be able to get at the grocery store back home. Best eaten the day made. Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups sifted flour |
6 tablespoons baking cocoa |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
6 tablespoons butter, softened |
1 cup sugar |
2 egg yolks |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup milk |
2 egg whites, stiffly beaten |
1 cup chocolate chips |
1 cup chopped pecans |
3 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1 tablespoon butter, softened |
1/2-3/4 cup icing sugar |
vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Mix the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt together.
2. Beat the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
3. Add the egg yolks and vanilla and beat well.
4. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk, beating well after each addition.
5. Fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips and pecans.
7. Spoon into well buttered miniature muffin cups.
8. Bake at 350*F for 15 minutes.
9. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
10. For cream cheese topping, beat the cream cheese and butter together until light.
